Why are there so few Bed and Breakfasts decorated in a contemporary motif?

The reason I rarely stay at B&B’s is because of the decor. I have had wonderful experiences at B&B’s, the few times I have stayed, so this is not a comment on their services in general, but I rarely find their rooms appealing.

Do most people actually find the victorian or more traditional decor appealing? It seems most hotels are trending towards modern furniture and fabrics. Maybe it is a completely different client base? Is it just that the places have not been updated? My biggest pet peeve in any room I might stay in is bedspreads, I hate them, and avoid any hotel with a bedspread if I can.

I’m interested in your thoughts on the matter, please discuss.
